Want to read offline? [Download PDF] Most thin-film deposition processes are designed with flat substrates in mind. Wafers, slides and foils present stable surfaces that face the deposition sources directly. In these applications, the science is well understood, the equipment is well established, and the results are predictable. However, a growing number of research and

Want to read offline? [Download PDF] Spacecraft power systems operate under constraints that eliminate many conventional energy storage options. CubeSats and small satellites in low Earth orbit experience thermal excursions from −20°C to +60°C or wider, sustained exposure to ionising radiation, and hard mass and volume limits, with no option for in-orbit maintenance or electrolyte

Conventional methods such as ICP-MS, GC-MS, and HPLC remain the gold standard for confirmatory analysis, but they require sophisticated laboratory infrastructure, lengthy sample preparation, and are poorly suited to rapid
Want to read offline? [Download PDF] Thin Film Lithium Niobate (TFLN) has become one of the most sought-after materials in modern photonics and integrated optoelectronics. With applications in telecommunications, quantum computing, photonic integrated circuits (PICs), and high-frequency electro‑optic modulators, TFLN is increasingly recognised as a cornerstone material for next‑generation optical technologies. [1],[2] Among available physical
